Dancing with Destiny

By: Chad Fisher

In this awe inspiring book, author Chad Fisher challenges us to a new view of Christ on the cross. As Jesus was dying on the cross, he stretched out his hands as an invitation to all. Chad discusses how Jesus beckons all of us like a prince stretching out His hand asking, “May I have this dance?” When we take Jesus’ hand, accepting the dance, that’s our first moment. Jesus, in all of His power and majesty, dances with us – every step, every slide, and every movement leading us to our destiny. Found written on the pages of the book is the chronicled life of Moses, from the day he was placed in the Nile river to the day he stretched out his staff and God parted the Red Sea. The author uses key stories from Moses’ life to help us understand the importance of our moments; and how they lead us into our destiny. I encourage you to accept the invitation to Dance with Destiny. Chad Fisher helps you to better understand that your history is a series of past circumstances, often complex, shaping and defining you as an individual. Life happens moment by moment. Our moments with God lead us into our destiny. One moment leads to the next. It’s like a dance. This is definitely a book you won’t want to put down!

Author Chad Fisher writers for Just Saying! You can read his articles in the monthly edition of the magazine.

Option B: Facing Adversity, Building Resilience, and Finding Joy

By Sheryl Sandberg

This book is a #1 New York Times Best Seller written by Facebook’s COO and Wharton’s top-rated professor. It is a powerful, inspiring, and practical book about building resilience and moving forward after life’s inevitable setbacks.

Option B combines Sheryl’s personal insights with Adam’s eye-opening research on finding strength in the face of adversity. Beginning with the gut-wrenching moment when she finds her husband, Dave Goldberg, collapsed on a gym floor, Sheryl opens up her heart—and her journal—to describe the acute grief and isolation she felt in the wake of his death. But Option B goes beyond Sheryl’s loss to explore how a broad range of people have overcome hardships including illness, job loss, sexual assault, natural disasters, and the violence of war. Their stories reveal the capacity of the human spirit to persevere . . . and to rediscover joy.
Resilience comes from deep within us and from support outside us. Even after the most devastating events, it is possible to grow by finding deeper meaning and gaining greater appreciation in our lives. Option B illuminates how to help others in crisis, develop compassion for ourselves, raise strong children, and create resilient families, communities, and workplaces. Many of these lessons can be applied to everyday struggles, allowing us to brave whatever lies ahead.
